🥟 Chao-Down #101 Japan permits companies to train generative AI without copyright, Apple avoids "AI" hype and emphasizes ML, OpenAI CEO commits to keeping company private

While headlines of the existential risks of AI fill our timelines, some people embrace a more techno-optimistic view of the future. Chief among them is a16z’s Marc Andreessen.

In his essay, Marc lays out some of the tangible benefits of AI like putting in the hands of every student an infinitely knowledgeable and patient tutor, to every person an infinitely helpful mentor/trainer/therapist, and to every leader an infinitely knowledgeable decision-making assistant.

Is Marc right in imagining this rosy future?
